Unfortunately for the DJ Anyma and festival-goers, his Friday Coachella set has been cancelled. Anyma was supposed to perform on the Main Stage tonight. It was supposed to mark a monumental show for the DJ, as he was presenting the world premiere of AEden. Coachella said the reason for the cancellation was the weather affecting his stage build, minutes after he was supposed to go on stage at 12:00 am PST. In their statement, the festival made sure to let fans know that this was a decision they made with Anyma to prioritize the safety of their guests.
Coachella’s full statement reads, “Due to strong wind conditions affecting Anyma’s stage build, he is unable to perform tonight. Coachella and Anyma have made this decision together with your safety as the priority.”
This cancellation may also be disappointing to fans of Blackpink’s Lisa. Earlier this week, Lisa and Anyma put out a new collaboration song called “Bad Angel”. The song being released so close to the festival caused a lot of rumors to stir regarding Lisa performing the song with Anyma at the festival.
After Coachella, Anyma will be setting off on the Aeden World Tour, which will run from May 2nd until December 12th in Paris. Following that tour, Anyma will have a residency in Ibiza from June until September. During the residency, he will perform the show every Tuesday at [UNVRS].

Update (6:14pm PST on 4/11/26):
Anyma has issued his own response to having to cancel his AEden premiere at Coachella. He expressed disappointment as he apologizeds to festival goers and fans at home that were looking forward to the live stream. He tells fans that the cancellation was also “incredibly painful” for him as well, and spoke about how much work went into planning his set. Anyma ends his statement by letting fans know that there are not any open slots for him to reschedule this weekend’s performance.
Anyma’s full statement reads, “I’m heartbroken. I don’t have many words other than to say I’m truly devastated and deeply sorry to everyone who showed up to the main stage, and to those watching the livestream at home. Having the opportunity to perform the new ÆDEN show and share all the new music and art means more to me than I can express. It’s incredibly painful, especially after working day and night for the past year, not just me, but my team and the @coachella crew, who poured everything into this. Safety was and always will be our biggest concern. The dangerous winds not only prevented us and Coachella from building our stage, but also made it impossible for my entire live setup and performance to operate safely. Unfortunately, there are no other slots available for me to perform the ÆDEN show this weekend. I’m working on a solution to bring you some music at least, but I don’t want to impose on the other artists’ slots. Updates soon. I’m so sorry.”
I’m heartbroken.

Update (5:15pm PST on 4/12/26):
There have been new developments in the story regarding the cancellation of Anyma’s set on Friday night. Despite previously not being able to move his set as there were no open slots, today, Anyma announced that his set has luckily been rescheduled. Instead of the mainstage, Anyma will perform at Coachella’s DoLab stage at 10:45 pm PST. Note that the DoLab stage is not a stage with a live stream being broadcast on the festival’s YouTube channel, so only festival goers will be able to watch his set live. It’s unclear if it will be the exact AEden set he had planned, or if Lisa will make an appearance for a performance of “Bad Angel”, but it should still be a good time!
